Help me give my students safe LED lighting for musical theater and the pit orchestra.
FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Hanf's classroom raised $904
This project is fully funded
My Project
Our pit orchestra and music theater department require wireless LED music stand lights to enhance visibility and reduce eye strain when working and performing backstage or in the orchestra pit during our theater productions. Rechargeable lighting will eliminate the risk of tripping over extension cords when walking through a group of thirty students, instruments, and microphones. Additionally, LED bulbs don't overheat like incandescent bulbs and will not burn students' hands as they turn pages. LED bulbs do not wiggle loose like incandescent bulbs during a show, which is not only a distraction to the show but also a safety hazard for students.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
